Dear Anwar Bhai,

here i present cessna 182 for the construction competition. Its wing span is 1530 mm.
PLEASE NOTE: All the parts are self made, including the cross-section members. NO READY MADE KITS ARE USED.

Please find the progress of my self made cessna 182.

Material information and construction strategy:

1. For cross-sectional and side members of the fuselage and the airfoil sections of the wing, I have used sunboard foam, 3mm
2. I have used solidworks for drawing 3d designs. please find the designs in the screenshot pictures.
3. the fuselage spars are of 'pine wood' (called SAL in marathi)
4. the ailerons and flaps will be of biofoam and rudder and elevator of corrugated plastic sheet.

So far this much only. I will keep posting my subsequent progress.

these pictures show the elevator made out of corrugated plastic sheet, the flaps and ailerons made out of bio-foam and then covered with white glossy vinyl.

so far, this much.

cheers!

hi people!
here is the progress: tail empennage is now complete and assembled on the fuselage. Control horns and wires are fixed inside the fuselage too.
Wing is covered half. Will fix in the servos for ailerons and flaps. The wing covering used is mono-coat sheet, white glossy in colour.

*NOTE: The landing gear which was seen fixed in my previous posts, has been temporarily removed for convenience in construction.

Yes..thats a good idea.. I will send a 2d drawing which can be easily opened in autocad. Plus, it will be easy to construct with a 2D sketch with dimensions. I will send the drawing to Anwar bhai soon.
